linux内存管理之活动内存区

Linux内存活动区域其实就是全局变量e820中的内存块做了相关的检查和对其处理后的区域。在管理区初始化等地方有用到。

数据结构

struct node_active_region {
	unsigned long start_pfn;
	unsigned long end_pfn;
	int nid;
};

初始化

活动内存的初始化工作在setup_arch()->initmem_init()->e820_register_active_regions()中

/* Walk the e820 map and register active regions within a node */
void __init e820_register_active_regions(int nid, unsigned long start_pfn,
					 unsigned long last_pfn)
{
	unsigned long ei_startpfn;
	unsigned long ei_endpfn;
	int i;

	for (i = 0; i < e820.nr_map; i++)
		if (e820_find_active_region(&e820.map[i],/*从全局变量e820中查找活动区*/
					    start_pfn, last_pfn,
					    &ei_startpfn, &ei_endpfn))
			add_active_range(nid, ei_startpfn, ei_endpfn);/*加入活动区*/
}

/*
 * Finds an active region in the address range from start_pfn to last_pfn and
 * returns its range in ei_startpfn and ei_endpfn for the e820 entry.
 */
int __init e820_find_active_region(const struct e820entry *ei,
				  unsigned long start_pfn,
				  unsigned long last_pfn,
				  unsigned long *ei_startpfn,
				  unsigned long *ei_endpfn)
{
	u64 align = PAGE_SIZE;

	*ei_startpfn = round_up(ei->addr, align) >> PAGE_SHIFT;
	*ei_endpfn = round_down(ei->addr + ei->size, align) >> PAGE_SHIFT;

	/* Skip map entries smaller than a page */
	if (*ei_startpfn >= *ei_endpfn)
		return 0;

	/* Skip if map is outside the node */
	if (ei->type != E820_RAM || *ei_endpfn <= start_pfn ||
				    *ei_startpfn >= last_pfn)
		return 0;

	/* Check for overlaps */
	if (*ei_startpfn < start_pfn)
		*ei_startpfn = start_pfn;
	if (*ei_endpfn > last_pfn)
		*ei_endpfn = last_pfn;

	return 1;
}

/*添加活动区域，需要对原有的进行检查*/
void __init add_active_range(unsigned int nid, unsigned long start_pfn,
						unsigned long end_pfn)
{
	int i;

	mminit_dprintk(MMINIT_TRACE, "memory_register",
			"Entering add_active_range(%d, %#lx, %#lx) "
			"%d entries of %d used\n",
			nid, start_pfn, end_pfn,
			nr_nodemap_entries, MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS);
//not set macro
	mminit_validate_memmodel_limits(&start_pfn, &end_pfn);

	/* Merge with existing active regions if possible */
	for (i = 0; i < nr_nodemap_entries; i++) {
		if (early_node_map[i].nid != nid)
			continue;

		/* Skip if an existing region covers this new one */
		if (start_pfn >= early_node_map[i].start_pfn &&
				end_pfn <= early_node_map[i].end_pfn)
			return;

		/* Merge forward if suitable */
		if (start_pfn <= early_node_map[i].end_pfn &&
				end_pfn > early_node_map[i].end_pfn) {
			early_node_map[i].end_pfn = end_pfn;
			return;
		}

		/* Merge backward if suitable */
		if (start_pfn < early_node_map[i].end_pfn &&
				end_pfn >= early_node_map[i].start_pfn) {
			early_node_map[i].start_pfn = start_pfn;
			return;
		}
	}

	/* Check that early_node_map is large enough */
	if (i >= MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS) {
		printk(KERN_CRIT "More than %d memory regions, truncating\n",
							MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS);
		return;
	}

	early_node_map[i].nid = nid;
	early_node_map[i].start_pfn = start_pfn;
	early_node_map[i].end_pfn = end_pfn;
	nr_nodemap_entries = i + 1;
